Hello again

I have another question

In the gig file I'm making, I don't want the samples to be velocity sensitive in any way (it would be totally unnatural for the instrument). I've managed through trial and error to get them playing back at constant volume. I've put a low pass filter on the samples, controlled by the modwheel (inverted, so full on has the filter fully closed). However, at very low velocities the notes are also velocity sensitive, with the filter barely opening, if at all. I can't figure out how to stop note velocity affecting the filter cutoff -- what am I doing wrong?

Many thanks

Q

So there's no-one able to answer this simple question? I had a few more questions about using Gigedit, in particular about keyswitching, because the documentation is a long way from being clear.

I guess I'll give up on developing these gig files I'm working on then.

Oh well, talking to myself again -- a sure sign of insanity

Now I've managed to get live editing working, it's been much easier experimenting with the velocity curves and velocity layers.

I think I've finally managed to achieve what I wanted, a velocity-insensitive low pass filter that is controlled by the modwheel. I'm using the linear velocity curve and "velocity dynamic range" of 3 or 4 seems to do the trick.

To me, this is highly counterintuitive -- I would have expected a dynamic range of 0 to be not velocity sensitive and higher numbers (greater dynamic range) to be more sensitive to velocity levels (and hence open the filter differently). Oh well, at least I figured it out.
